    Brian , if it were me I'd apply the 'golden rule'. Don't know it - delete or if that's not possible, ignore it until you can find out more to remove it safely. Others here may help. Cheers, Richard

    What were the questions Brian, don't keep us in suspenders

    Bet I know

    1. Which bank do you bank with ?

    2. What is your bank account number and card pin so we can pay the winnings into it ?

    3. What is the pin number to get into your on line account in case we cannot get into your Bank Account ?

    I think your right Chris.
    Just Delete it Brian. If it sounds too good to be true no doubt it will be too good to be true.

    It keeps popping up every few minutes, I didn't click on the questions Chris, don't know what I may find,
    I just wondered if it was an official message from the site owners.
    If no one else is receiving one then it must be some kind of virus.
    Thanks for all your suggestions.
    Cheers
    Brian.

    Brian what Internet security are you using. I have just bought a new laptop and there was a 30 day trial installed for McAfee. Once the 30 day trial was over the laptop was unprotected for about an hour. During that period you would not believe the number of pop ups and adverts that appeared. The whole laptop seemed to be infected with them to the extent say, if you were browsing this site, the page would go blank and a full screen advert for Betfred or some suchthing would appear. Anyway I renewed the McAfee internet security and that stopped everything. Maybe you should contact your security provider.
    Regards
    John
